Happy New Year

I was so excited about New Year's Eve! Tía Meli said we could have a slumber party and I had a secret plan: to stay up until midnight! I thought that if we played games and had enough things to keep us busy we could stay awake. Piece of cake. Right? Well... It started out fine.


I got some beads for Christmas and decided to share them, so we could each make necklaces. Ayla, Carla and I got started.


Ayla made hers first and she decided to go ahead and make one for Aleah who would be arriving soon.


Aleah came and was thrilled because she loves butterflies and we all put on our new necklaces.


Next on the agenda: PIZZA! What is a slumber party without pizza? teehee


After we ate we played Apples to Apples. Have you ever played it? It's a fun game and we laughed a lot and played it for a long time.


Then I passed out notepads and pencils so we could each write down some New Years resolutions. Mine are to learn more about birds because I want to be an ornithologist. That's a person who knows all about birds. Clara and Aleah both want to learn ballet and Ayla wants to learn to roller blade. At this point *yawn* we started to get... ummmmmmm... soooooo... sleepy.....


And this is what happened! Oh well. Maybe next year I will be able to stay awake until midnight!

Hugs and Happy New Year,
